Abstract
3D models of the skin surface of patients are created by ultra-fast holography and
automatic scan matching of synchronously recorded holograms. By recording with
a pulsed laser and continuous-wave optical reconstruction of the holographic real
image, motion artifacts are eliminated. Focal analysis of the real image yields a
surface relief of the patient. To generate a complete 360◦ patient model, several
synchronously recorded reliefs are registered by automatic scan matching. We find
the transformation consisting of a rotation and a translation that minimizes a cost
function containing the Euclidian distances between points pairs from two surface
relief maps. A variant of the ICP (Iterative Closest Points) algorithm is used to
compute such a minimum. We propose a new fast approximation based on kD trees for the problem of creating the closest point pairs on which the ICP algorithm
spends most of its time.
